Our Glamorous Time( A Vsoo adaptation novel by Ding Mo)

Chapter 40 (The Last Thing Pending)

The aircraft engine was humming; outside the window, the view of the stratosphere flashed past.

Jisoo stared at the file. The opening was sealed with red wax.

“What was the additional agreement?” she asked.

Taehyung left the document in front of her; he raised his water glass and took a sip, then he said, “He proposed lending me a hundred million in cash.”

Jisoo was stunned.

She felt sweet and touched. This was so unlike Kim Namjoon; on the other hand, this seemed like exactly what he would do for his sister.

What was this? That dictatorial emperor, who wanted to strip Kim Taehyung until there was nothing left of him, had set the strict requirement of him becoming the leader of the industry within a year. But he had also raised such a huge sum of cash for Taehyung to go to war with, ensuring that they could sit back and relax after Aito was launched.

She seemed to be... too harsh on her brother.

She was touched by this sincere sibling love, yet her feelings only lasted for a few seconds, because she heard Taehyung add, “After a year, I need to pay him back two hundred million for both principal and interest.”

Jisoo stared ahead in shock.

Damn it! She had felt touched for nothing. He was indeed “ Flayer.” His provision of one hundred million was definitely a strong helping hand for Aida, but he certainly did not forget his aim to strip Taehyung until there was nothing left of him!

Jisoo quietly imagined her brother’s face, handsome and arrogant.

Then, she heard Taehyung speak again. “He made it clear that when the time comes, one hundred million of principal will be returned to him, and the other hundred million in interest will be given to you.”

He glanced at the document on the table, saying, “I kept fifty million to be used for Aito. The other fifty million I had put into an investment registered under your name.”

Jisoo was stunned. She replied, “I never wanted his money. Even if you make a profit using this money, I don’t want it.”

Taehyung glanced at her, his eyes smiling, and spoke softly. “He said it’s your dowry.”

Jisoo smiled.

Now she had completely understood her brother’s thoughts. Lending a hundred million was not an easy task—even for him. So he was indeed trying his best to help Taehyung, his sister’s lover.

But, his help was conditional. If you treat my sister nicely, the money earned in the future can still be used by the both of you, so I don’t want a single cent of it. But if in the future Taehyung cheated on her and both of them broke up, he would definitely not let him off the hook easily. Did he dare believe the Kim siblings were so easy-going that they would give out a hundred million freely?

But Jisoo still shook her head. “I don’t want it.”

Taehyung fell silent for a moment, and then he replied, “Okay. When we have earned two hundred million, we will return everything to him.”

Jisoo was about to nod when she suddenly felt that something was off. She pondered, then she said, “Why do we need to return everything to him? You earned the money. We would return him the one hundred million principal plus the interest rate of the bank loan for a year. The rest you would keep.”

Amusement flashed past Taehyung’s eyes.

Right after she spoke, Jisoo realized she had taken Taehyung’s side... too much. Sheepishly she said, “I’m being impartial. I’m not siding with anyone.”
